Remember when Asher Land invited her to the Imperial Court Hotel to discuss the matter of City of Desire, he arrogantly said to her, Sophie Smith, you wouldn't think you can get what you want without giving anything in return, would you?
Back then, she still thought that as long as she worked hard, she could achieve it.
But what he said next completely changed her impression of him.
His exact words were, 'As long as you make sure I have fun, the role is yours. And don't ask how to make me have fun; it's a physical transaction, you understand?'
Ha, isn't it just the infamous industry rule?
At that time, she indeed aimed to be a woman who didn't understand the hidden rules, willing to forgo any role as long as she didn't sell her body.
But, Asher Land never allowed her to do that.
What he wanted, he never failed to obtain.
…
The enthusiastic applause at the scene pulled Sophie Smith back from her drifting thoughts.
